Abstract
This article deals with the phonology of a Central Čakavian dialect, both from a synchronic and diachronic perspective, and is based on the author's fieldwork material. First the author presents a synchronic analysis of the vowel system (including accentuation), then he proposes a reconstruction in the form of a series of rules which led from late dialectal Proto-Slavic to the present-day state of affairs. Special attention is given to the reflexes of 'jat'. The article concludes with observations on the development of the consonants.
